Leviticus 23:24-39
24“SpeakH1696 toH413 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 and sayH559, ‘On the firstH259 dayH2320 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320 you are to haveH1961 a day of restH7677, a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744 announcedH2146 by trumpet blastsH8643.1 25You must notH3808 doH6213 anyH3605 regular workH4399H5656, but you are to presentH7126 a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068.’”
26Again the LORDH3068 saidH1696 toH413 MosesH4872H559, 27“The tenthH389H6218 day of thisH2088 seventhH7637 monthH2320 is the DayH3117 of AtonementH3725H1931. You shall holdH1961 a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744 and humbleH6031 yourselvesH5315,2 and presentH7126 a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068.
28On thisH2088H6106 dayH3117 you are notH3808 to doH6213 anyH3605 workH4399, forH3588 itH1931 is the DayH3117 of AtonementH3725, when atonement is madeH3722 for youH5921 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 29IfH3588 anyoneH3605H5315 does notH3808 humble himselfH6031 on thisH2088H6106 dayH3117, he must be cut offH3772 from his peopleH5971. 30I will destroyH6 from amongH7130 his peopleH5971 anyoneH3605H5315 whoH834 doesH6213 anyH3605 workH4399 on thisH2088H6106 dayH3117.
31You are notH3808 to doH6213 anyH3605 work at allH4399. This is a permanentH5769 statuteH2708 for the generations to comeH1755, whereverH3605 you liveH4186. 32ItH1931 will be a SabbathH7676 of complete restH7677 for you, and you shall humbleH6031 yourselvesH5315. From the eveningH6153 of the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320 untilH5704H6153 the following eveningH6153 you are to keepH7673 your SabbathH7676.”
33And the LORDH3068 saidH1696 toH413 MosesH4872H559, 34“SpeakH1696 toH413 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 and sayH559, ‘On the fifteenthH2568H6240 dayH3117 of theH2088 seventhH7637 monthH2320 the FeastH2282 of TabernaclesH55213 to the LORDH3068 begins, and it continues for sevenH7651 daysH3117. 35On the firstH7223 dayH3117 there shall be a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744. You must notH3808 doH6213 anyH3605 regular workH4399H5656. 36For sevenH7651 daysH3117 you are to presentH7126 a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068. On the eighthH8066 dayH3117 you are to holdH1961 a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744 and presentH7126 a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068. ItH1931 is a solemn assemblyH6116; you must notH3808 doH6213 anyH3605 regular workH4399H5656.
37TheseH428 are the LORD’sH3068 appointed feastsH4150, whichH834 you are to proclaimH7121 as sacredH6944 assembliesH4744 for presentingH7126 food offeringsH801 to the LORDH3068—burnt offeringsH5930 and grain offeringsH4503, sacrificesH2077 and drink offeringsH5262, each onH1697 its designatedH3117 dayH3117. 38These offerings are in addition toH905 the offerings for the LORD’sH3068H905 SabbathsH7676, and in addition to your giftsH4979H905, to allH3605 your vow offeringsH5088H905, and to allH3605 the freewill offeringsH5071 you giveH5414 to the LORDH3068.
On the fifteenthH2568H6240 dayH3117 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320, after you have gatheredH622 the produceH8393 of the landH776, you are to celebrateH2287 a feastH2282 to the LORDH3068 for sevenH7651 daysH3117. There shall be complete restH7677 on the firstH7223 dayH3117 andH7677 also on the eighthH8066 dayH3117.
